Display runs Sept. 7-20 and is located in Ley Theatre. Open to the public.
Experience the story of Anne Frank through a traveling exhibit on display Sept. 7-20 at Wayne State College. Through Anne’s words and experiences, the exhibit explores the life of the young Jewish diarist whose writings have become one of the world’s most widely known firsthand accounts of the Holocaust.
Anne received her diary on her 13th birthday in 1942. Just weeks later, she and her family went into hiding from Nazi persecution. For more than two years, Anne recorded her thoughts, feelings, and experiences in her diary. Her diary would later be published and read by millions of people around the world.
The exhibit will be open daily from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. in Ley Theatre, located on the second floor of the Brandenburg Building. Admission is free and open to the public. Guided tours led by Wayne State students will be available when possible.
The traveling exhibit is sponsored by the Institute for Holocaust Education in Omaha and the Anne Frank Center at the University of South Carolina.
